Fixed Location, Ultra-Low Flush, Sewage-Holding Vessel Restroom System
US Patent:
2010005, Mar 4, 2010
Filed:
Aug 19, 2009
Appl. No.:
12/543652
Inventors:
Kenneth Earlywine - Vancouver WA, US
International Classification:
E03D 1/00
US Classification:
4321
Abstract:
A restroom system can include a fixed-in-place restroom building, a flush toilet housed in the restroom building, a water supply system in communication with the flush toilet, and a sewage-holding vessel in communication with the flush toilet. Sewage can be received in the flush toilet and water can be supplied from the water supply system to the flush toilet in an amount less than 1 gallon of water per flush. Sewage effluent can be flushed from the flush toilet, transported to the holding vessel, and extracted from the sewage-holding vessel and to a sewage hauling vehicle tank. The sewage effluent can be transported away from the restroom system in the sewage hauling vehicle tank.
Force Beam Elevator And Method Of Use
US Patent:
2009018, Jul 23, 2009
Filed:
Jan 18, 2008
Appl. No.:
12/009573
Inventors:
Kenneth G. Earlywine - Vancouver WA, US
International Classification:
G01F 1/05, G01F 25/00
US Classification:
702 45, 7386179, 73 116, 702100
Abstract:
A system for ascertaining absolute fluid flow in a passage way comprises: a force beam that is inserted into a fluid; a carriage to support the beam, the carriage enabling the beam to move vertically in a fixed plane; one or more load cells incorporated with the beam to measure force applied to the beam by the fluid flow; a data recorder and processor for integrating the measurements and for running algorithms that convert the integrated measurements into a value of absolute flow and a controller to operate the system. In some embodiments the force beam may be light and neutrally buoyant in the fluid. Measurements are taken at pre-specified intervals while moving the beam in a vertical plane perpendicular to the direction of fluid flow. One application is the calibration of Winter-Kennedy piezometers in the barrels of large water turbines. A method of use is also provided.
